Help us raise money to support Walnut Avenue Family & Women's Center of Santa Cruz

Walnut Avenue Family & Women's Center is a public benefit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for women, children, and families in Santa Cruz County for 85 years. They provide strengths-based, supportive programs in childcare, youth development, parenting, domestic violence awareness & prevention, and advocacy. Many of the families participating in Walnut Avenue programs are from under-served populations due to poverty, early pregnancy, homelessness and/or domestic violence. Walnut Avenue seeks to improve the economic, physical, and emotional well-being of all the families they serve.
